ROOM TYPES It is the responsibility of the Booko.pro member making the booking to ensure that the room type booked will be suitable for the party traveling. If more persons turn up at the hotel than the room can accommodate then the hotel is within their rights not to accept the booking and in this case, no refund will be made. While Booko.pro undertakes to ensure that your clients requested room type and smoking preference are available, Booko.pro cannot guarantee the actual bedding make-up of the room. These requests are sent to the hotel and are subject to availability. Booko.pro tries to ensure that the hotel provides the room type(s) booked, however, there may be occasions when instead of a double-bedded room a twin may be allocated or a double-bedded room instead of a twin. Please be aware that the majority of European hotels provide 2 single beds pushed together to make a Double bed. While all room type preferences are forwarded to the hotel, room allocation is done by the hotel and subject to availability at the time of check-in. Please check our FAQ for room-type descriptions.

 

HOTEL CATEGORIES/ LOCAL CLASSIFICATION AND * RATINGS Star ratings aim to give a general overview of the quality of the hotel and the approximate level of facilities, services, and amenities available.

Likewise, once a booking has been booked and confirmed at the rates you have accepted, there is no refund for any difference in rates due to exchange rate fluctuations. All rates are valid for the leisure market only.

 

Booko.pro will not accept responsibility for any booking if it becomes known that a client is not traveling for leisure purposes.

This can be as much as 3% although Capital One not only doesn’t impose its own fee, but it also applies the 1% fee that Visa or MasterCard impose.

Please note that the charge has not been passed on by Booko.pro and that Booko.pro cannot be held responsible for any international transaction charges passed on by your or your client’s credit card issuer. Some hotels, particularly in the USA do charge a resort fee which must be paid to the hotel directly. This is typically $10 to $20 a room a night.
